Files in this repository include "RUNS Tables" (all .txt files) associated with each experiment type of larva behavior in the manuscript. The descriptions of each .txt file list the larva strain and experimental or control conditions. 

RUNS tables have this format:

Each row is a RUN (segment of a track between two turns).

Each column is a property of the RUN:
Column #...
0 = which set the run is from (=1 for every entry here)
1 = which experiment the run is from
2 = which track within that experiment the run belongs to
3 = the absolute elapsed time within the experiment of the start of the run (in seconds)
4 = whether the run ends in a valid reorientation (0=no, 1=yes)
5 = average mean orientation (crawling direction) of the run (in radians, 0=+x direction, ccw sign convention)
6 = the path length of the run (in pixels, use 0.118 mm/pixel to convert to real distances)
7 = the time duration of the run
8 = the x-position of the animal at the end of the run
9 = the number of head swings in the reorientation that comes after the run
10 = orientation of the animal just before the reorientation (radians)
11 = orientation of the animal just after the reorientation (radians)
12 = first head swing angle (max. angle of the initial head swing)
13 = initial direction heading of the run
14 = x0, x-position of the start of the run
15 = y0, y-position of the start of the run
16 = x1, x-position of the end of the run
17 = y1, y-position of the end of the run
